Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to an incoming call notification mascot of a telephone that notifies an incoming call to the telephone by voice or lighting or blinking.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there have been known telephone incoming call notification devices of various configurations in which an incoming call signal is notified by a unique voice, a melody, or the like, without using a ringing sound such as a ringer sound that is pre-installed in a popular telephone.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 These conventionally-known incoming call notification devices have an effect of giving the user a sense of interest because they are individualized without relying on a uniform ringer sound or other notification means. Since most of the circuits incorporate the circuit in the telephone, there is a problem that if you try to use it, you have to purchase a new telephone, which puts a burden on the user. It has become a bottleneck for diffusion.

[0004] There are some of these incoming call notification devices which are separated and independent of the telephone, but all of them embody only their functions, do not appeal to human emotions, and lack interesting taste. I hate it. In recent years, telephone users' preferences have diversified, and it is also important to respond to this diversification of preferences.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The purpose of this invention is to provide a telephone call notification mascot that is independent of the telephone and can be used as a mascot or figurine.

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention is directed to an incoming call notification mascot that is installed outside a telephone and driven by an independent power supply from the telephone, and internally receives an incoming signal connected to a telephone terminal. An incoming signal detection circuit for detecting, an audio synthesizing circuit for synthesizing audio based on an output signal from the incoming signal detecting circuit, an audio amplifying circuit for amplifying an output signal from the audio synthesizing circuit, And a speaker for outputting an output signal.

According to the present invention, a mascot may be provided with a lamp lighting or blinking means in place of or together with the sound generating means.

Further, according to the present invention, a power supply of a telephone can be used as a power supply.

[0009] The mascot can then form this into a character product.

[0010]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 The drawings show an embodiment of the invention. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a mascot or figurine in the form of an animal doll as a character product, for example. The incoming call notifying means 2 shown in FIG. In addition, the mascot 1 is not limited to the embodiment, and various things such as a doll, other animal dolls, and character goods can be considered. Reference numeral 3 denotes a plug connected to a commercial power supply, which has a voltage drop and a rectifier circuit function as necessary. 4 is a telephone terminal of the telephone 5 L₁, L_TwoThe code connected to

In FIG. 2, the incoming call notifying means 2 comprises an incoming signal detecting circuit 6, a voice generating means 7 and a light emitting means 8. The sound generating means 7 includes a sound synthesizing circuit 9, a sound amplifying circuit 10, and a speaker 11, and the light emitting means 8 includes a lighting or blinking circuit 12 and a lamp 13.

When an incoming signal is input to the telephone terminals L ₁ and L ₂ for receiving the incoming signal of the telephone 5, the incoming signal detection circuit 8 detects the incoming signal via the code 4, and the voice synthesis circuit 7 And further amplifies the voice synthesized by the voice amplification circuit 10 and outputs the amplified voice to the speaker 11 installed in the mascot 1. Thus, at the same time as the input of the incoming call signal, the incoming call is notified from the speaker 11 by, for example, the sound of a bird called “Pi-Pi-Pe”.

In addition, when the incoming signal is detected by the incoming signal detecting circuit 6, the lighting or blinking circuit 12 is turned on, and the lamp 13 is turned on or blinking to notify the incoming.

The lighting or blinking of the lamp 12 and the output of the sound by the speaker 11 can be arbitrarily selected from one or both of them, or only one of them can be arbitrarily selected. Various known light sources such as an LED lamp, an incandescent lamp, a fluorescent lamp, a neon lamp, and a flashing lamp can be selected as the lamp 13.

Further, a commercial power supply, a power supply from a telephone line, or a battery power supply can be used as a drive power supply for the incoming call notifying means 2. When a commercial power supply or a battery power supply is used, for example, a photo coupler is used. A switching circuit for detecting a power failure or running out of battery and switching to a power supply from a telephone line or a normal ringer sound generating circuit can be provided.

[0016]

[Effect of the invention]

 Since the present invention is configured as described above, in all the claims, the existing telephone is left as it is, and the mascot according to the present invention is simply connected to the existing telephone. Since it can be used as a means of notifying the incoming signal using voice or light that is not available in the telephone, installation is easy without burdening the user, and the user's interest is reduced, This can have the effect of being able to appeal to

[0017] In addition, the configuration according to claim 1 provides notification only by voice, and the configuration according to claim 2 provides notification only by lighting or blinking of a lamp. Is an effective notification means. In addition, when configured as in claim 3, the notification is made by lighting or blinking of a sound and a lamp. Since all of the claims 1 to 3 have their own power supply, various sounds and lighting or blinking are performed. Notification becomes possible.

Next, since the power supply of the telephone is used as the power supply, the invention has an advantage that it can be manufactured at low cost and maintenance is easy. Claim 4 is for reporting only by sound, Claim 5 is for reporting only the lighting or blinking of the lamp, and Claim 6 is for reporting by means of both voice and lighting or blinking of the lamp. it can.

According to the seventh aspect of the invention, the same effects as those of the first to sixth aspects are achieved, and the intimacy of the character product which the user likes is relieved of the user's nervousness. It has a more appealing effect on the emotion.
